An all-mountain board could hardly be more adaptable. Powder or park, kicker or sidehits - the Mercury is famous for its versatility. The Hover Core™ provides stability and ollie power, while the Resort V2 profile offers maximum float and edge grip. With this board, you don't need to check the weather forecast - the Mercury can handle anything.
The Mercury is handmade in Austria in the first snowboard production facility powered by 100 % clean energy. It is a Good Wood Award and Platinum Picks winner.
Riding style
All-mountain freestyle for experienced and advanced riders - you want to have fun all over the mountain? This board can handle everything from sidehits at the edge of the piste to powder runs in the backcountry and fast carving turns.
Shape
With the directional shape, the nose is slightly longer than the tail. The bindings and the sidecut are slightly offset to the back. This increases the stability at higher speeds and the uplift in powder.
Profile
The Resort V2 profile combines a classic camber between the bindings with a rocker in tip and tail. The rocker increases uplift in powder. The camber offers you good edge hold and fast power transmission on hard slopes.
Flex
The medium-stiff flex ensures precise control and fast board response.
Construction
Capita uses a blend of paulownia and poplar for the Hover Core™, which makes it ready for any terrain and any conditions. Amplitex V-Tech™ Amplifiers are strips of carbon and flax. These strips run from the inserts to the contact points, stiffening the nose and tail while dampening vibrations. The Holysheet™ triax-fibreglass gives you a better glass-to-weight ratio than regular fibreglass and is built into the Mercury with high-performance, plant-based Magic Bean™ resin for powerful and dynamic performance. The sintered Hyperdrive™ base is exceptionally fast, hard and absorbs a lot of wax for more durability and added speed.
Snowboards er som regel leveret klar til brug med en vokset base og slebede kanter. Men denne såkaldte fabriksklargøring er ikke særlig holdbar og dit nye snowboard bør vokses efter et par dage og vedligholdes på regelmæssig basis.

Capita producerer ikke kun nogle af markedets bedste snowboards, men de gør det samtidig med at de påvirker planeten mindst muligt. Deres produktionsfabrik, kendt som moderskibet, kører på hydro power og yderliger intet (ja det er rigtig INTET) skadelig emission og sætter dermed en ny standard for miljøvenlige boards. Deres mål er at holde humøret og glæden højt omkring snowboarding for alle nuværende og fremtidige generationer. Vi håber at se flere virksomheder, der følger i deres fodspor.
